A nice local mom and Pop shop. This salsa was delicious although it was a little spicy for me, but it was definitely great. The food was good just like any other Mexican restaurants in Bakersfield. Would definitely enjoy going back. The lunch hour was very busy and very Rushed by our waitress. We do live in a business area so having people come in and out was probably their main source. I would've liked to have our time in peace, but understand the business nature of this restaurant.

I have not been back here for over a year!!!!l. A table of 8 and I was ordering and paying the whole bill. Jessie's mouth made me say it will be a long time before I come in again. I would come in 2/3 times a month, ordering guaq and drinks for everyone on my table. Than go to multiple plates of nachos before the main meal would come. Your mom and sister did a better job. I go other places now with my 3-400 meal. Go jack other people around you including your staff!!!!! I'm done

I really enjoy this family owned restaurant. They are a part of Bakersfield's history. Kellie was my sweet server today. But the entire staff is spot on. No matter how busy they are the service is always good. The food is delicious and comes out quickly. They have a full bar. They have a very long standing and loyal client base. They are family friendly and happy to accommodate large groups.

This restaurant holds many memories for my husband's childhood. The food is good and the owners are friendly. There is a very good fast and efficient staff running the place. We never have a problem finding quick sitting and quick service. The restaurant is my loud and high energy. It's a fun place for dinner.

I've been in Bakersfield for over 20 years, and I never knew about this place; what a gem! The salsa appears to be homemade, using fire-grilled peppers. I had the chili verde burrito, which I can say is their best seller. My spouse had the beef taco and enchilada combo, which was also very good. El Sombrero has made it to the top of my list for Mexican cuisine. The service was spot on, and the waiters were very gracious to all customers, including others not at their assigned tables. We will be back to try the other items on the menu

Went here for lunch with the family. It was a quick lunch so I was unable to get pictures but the soup server waitress Maria was great. She did a fantastic job. The food was delicious as always. The atmosphere is as you would expect for an older Mexican restaurant, but the cheese was melted. The food was hot, the flavor was fantastic if you like french fries like my kids do they have those and they are good

Ordered a 16oz soda and chips and chilli sauce (canned) and they charged me $13.75 This is simply ridiculous. When I told them I was not going to pay that for just chips and chilli sauce they told me they couldn't void it because there was no one available to authorize the cancellation; during lunch time and no personal authorize to do a void??? I don't think so.
